Bug Description

Theme files:
* {
  font-family: Arial;
  font-size: 50;
}

or

* {
  font: Arial 50;
}

have no effect.

This config shows, that CSS is actually parsed correctly, because all fonts within GTK3 applications become bold, however size and face remain unaffected:
* {
  font: Arial Bold 50;
}

This happens on libgtk-3-0 3.2.0-0ubuntu4.

Confirmed with Ubuntu 12.10 and GTK 3.6.

The text becomes bold but the size and font are ignored.
